Are you taking off on vacation? Driving to a holiday destination is often most convenient. But summer also sees a rise in motor vehicle crashes and fatalities for tourists in foreign lands. A little knowledge can help you stay safe. A few simple measures can help you to stay safe: - Always wear seat-belts and place children in the child seats. - When possible, avoid driving a car at night in a country you are unfamiliar with. - When possible, avoid riding motorcycles. If you must ride a motorcycle, always wear a helmet. - Know local traffic laws before you get behind the wheel. - Don’t drink and drive. - Ride only in marked taxis that have seat-belts. - Avoid overcrowded or top-heavy buses or vans. - Be alert when crossing the street, especially in countries where people drive on the other side of the road. Practice looking both ways before crossing the road and teach your children this habit. Enjoy your holiday!
